Steelers Activate Adam Thielen, Elevate Marquez Valdes-Scantling for Ravens Game

Pittsburgh turns to veteran help to jolt a lagging passing game.

Overview

  • The Steelers' inactives list confirms Adam Thielen and Marquez Valdes-Scantling are active and set to make their team debuts in Week 14 at Baltimore.
  • Marquez Valdes-Scantling and offensive tackle Dylan Cook were elevated from the practice squad as one-game call-ups expected to revert after the matchup.
  • Thielen arrived earlier in the week via waivers, adding experience to a thin receiver group behind DK Metcalf.
  • Valdes-Scantling spent a month on Pittsburgh’s practice squad after signing Nov. 4 and brings prior familiarity with Aaron Rodgers from their 2018–2021 Green Bay tenure.
  • The roster moves follow a 26-7 loss to the Bills and address passing-game inconsistency and depth concerns at wide receiver and along the offensive line.
